    Hitman GO Definitive Edition is an interesting and unique puzzle game with enough variation to keep it entertaining. However it misses a bit of challenge, except for how to deal with the irritating camera standpoint.

    Kirby's Adventure surpasses the previously released Kirby's Epic Yarn and is particularly enjoyable because of the varying levels and the offline multiplayer. It's a pity the game isn't challenging at all. An online multiplayer would have been a great addition as well.

    Poochy and Yoshi's Woolly World is a great platformer. The cute style and entertaining gameplay make this game one of the best platformers for 3DS. It just doesn't live up to it's predecessor on Wii U.

    The Pathless is a really entertaining game from the creators of Abzû. The game lets you explore a vast world with a huntress and her eagle. Saving the world is no terrible job since the world is truly amazing, but the lack of enemies and the lack of unlockables don't really invite you to do. Where everything in the game is balanced really good from the puzzles to the boss fights, you get the feeling something is missing eventually. The game is great but could be much, much more than this.

    Rockstar shows with this new expansion there is still a lot more to bring into the Wild West. Liars and Cheats has a lot of fun game modes to offer that will keep all of you online cowboys entertained.

    Mega Man has its most authentic legacy yet with Mega Man Legacy Collection. This bundle contains six games for only 15 euros and delivers the real retro Mega Man experience with extras.

    Marvel vs Capcom Infinite is a nice game. That is, if you can look past the graphics and animations and don’t mind the slow loading screens. We secretly find it very pleasing to kick some butt with a Ryu and Dante on the same team.

    From start to finish you are taken into a cool adventure where Lara Croft becomes more and more human. With good balance between puzzles, battles and explorations, you feel like you're in an adventure where everything is dangerous.

    My Memory of Us shows the harsh reality of World War II. It has a beautiful artstyle and great music as well. It's a shame the controls get in the way some times as the puzzels make the game worth playing.

    Sanctum 2 may not be the most original tower-defense game or even the one with the most depth. But it doesn't change the fact planet LOEK III is still a very appealing planet to visit. Although you're going to have to wield an arsenal of big guns to survive the stronger growing alien hordes that want you dead as soon as possible.

    If you are looking for a game that will give you hours of fun and thousands of enemies to shoot, then Söldner-X 2 just might be the thing you want!

    Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising is an ultimate realistic shooter. For some this can be the reason to ignore this game. But for those who seek a good challenge, this is just the right shooter.

    It is a pity that the game has not been given a newer jacket, because the appearance due to the graphics is now not completely up to date. But if you play long enough, the jacket secretly fits like a glove and you have a smile on your face non-stop when you play Chrono Cross: The Radical Dreamers Edition and that's ultimately what counts!.

    Dead Nation is one of the few PlayStation Network games, that manages to look and feel like a full grown retail game. The mood and the gameplay just feel right and the small lack of variation never gets frustrating.

    Riders Republic is a worthy successor to both Steep and The Crew. This massive multiplayer sports game offers access to a beautiful area where players can go all out and hardly be put in the way.

    Lionhead has learned from past experiences and has managed to pack a lot of action and comedy into Traitor's Keep. For 560 Microsoft Points you'll get a great but short adventure that follows the Fable III storyline.

    The Sims 4: Get Famous is worth your time as it allows you to become a celebrity. Thanks to fitting career options and multiple ways to become a star you'll have a blast playing through the small world. The scale therefor might be it's biggest flaw.

    Are you looking for a tactical game on the Wii, Pikmin is a fun title you should consider buying. Unfortunately it only has a short story. If you never played the GameCube version, but it always looked interesting to you, it is worth the money. Trust me!

    There's so much to do in this game, it's easy to forget the world around you. Unfortunately, LEGO: Harry Potter: Years 5-7 lacks in originality compared to earlier LEGO titles, but the real LEGO fan shouldn't be bothered by this. Without a doubt, this is one of the best games in the LEGO series to date. Yes that's right, we were under its spell.

    Doom II will let you experience some nostalgic feelings but the gameplay feels extremely outdated and doesn't hold up compared to today's standards.

    Call of Duty Infinite Warfare does that what CoD does best. High tempo combat of huge scale, but now in a space setting. You feel like being part of a movie. Zombies made by far the biggest growth. The multiplayer is fine, but feels like Black Ops 3 Plus.

    This role playing game feels fresh and is exactly what the PS Vita needs at this moment. Soul Sacrifice doesn't give players a sword, but the whole game leans on using magic.

    This is a good game that combines first-person shooter gameplay with RPG elements. It's a though game, but short. However it has a lot of replay value.

    Endless Space offers a very addictive experience that will keep you playing till deep in the night. It has a few flaws and it does nothing spectacular but other than that it's still a great game.

    Costume Quest is a fun game that will make a lot of people happy with its simplistic style and its witty conversations. The only downside of this game is the lack of variety.

    Zombie Army finally has its own face as the graphics are a lot better than its predecessors and there are plenty of new elements. You get to fight zombies in new areas, battle new enemies and get the best experience when slaughtering zombies with some good old-fashioned co-op gameplay. The only real downside is the reduced possibility for sniping.

    Obsidian has proven once again that they are the masters of role-playing games. Avowed has excellent combat, lively characters, a beautiful world and the storytelling is masterful. If they just fix a couple of bugs, they’ve got a masterpiece on their hands.

    Lost Orbit tries to be quick and quirky, but fails with the first element. It doesn't force you to go quick, which is a shame for a game where everything is build around speed. Great atmosphere, music, but a fundamental flaw in gameplay.

    Although Sniper Elite 4 has its flaws, it is easily the best titles in the series yet. Rebellion has gone out of its way to deliver an even better sniper experience and did an extraordinary job doing so.
